mitt romney in an editorial board meeting with "the des moines register" yesterday talked about how he would not pursue legislation that would restrict abortion rights in this country. so it will be interesting to see if that question comes up. these kinds of questions don't typically come up, but it could. >> i want to just jump in because he's a terrific orator, and i want to hear some of the comments live from chris christie. let's listen in for a moment. >> -- the truth about these problems and that some of the solutions aren't going to be easy, and they may hurt. but we know the answers. and what we're missing now more than anything else, in my opinion, is someone to grab us all by the hand and lead us there. to say, i know the way, and so do you. and i will take the shots that are necessary. i will take the hits that are necessary. i will take the criticism that will come from those who want to pursue the easier path because that's what you're hiring me to do. and that's what this election's really about in my opinion, everybody. is who's going to do that. and if you look at the

mitt romney, if you listen carefully to what he said, he talks about legislation. well, that's very different as you and i know, brooke, from supporting nominees to the supreme court who would outlaw abortion, who would overturn roe v. wade. that's very different than supporting legislation that would try to do that in congress. and so i think that might be the distinction there that mitt romney is going for. as you mentioned, a few moments ago, he has evolved on this issue over the years and romney has not shied away from that. he admitted back in 2004 that when he was governor of massachusetts that he had had a conversion on this issue. it was when he was basically told about what happened to embryos during stem cell research, that is when he says he had an epiphany on the issue of life and from then on forward he has been pretty staunchly anti-abortion. >> so, let me jump in, because you any, you say distinction, we could call it knnuance, that th nuance on this abortion issue is cropping up as the president and his supporters are accusing romney of flip-floppin
